    Huevos Tostada **
    Marina V.

    I made a reservation for brunch before I had to head to work because I saw they had gluten free options. I ordered the huevos tostada and it was amazing! It was such a large portion I couldn't finish it all the way but the flavor was amazing and I loved the green sauce that came with it. My server was very kind and if I'm in the area again I'll definitely eat here. Just a word of advice, make a reservation because the day before I arrived and it was packed inside. It's quite a small place so you want to make sure you reserve a table.

    Attentive and friendly service. Homey neighborhood ambience. Generous and tasty portions. The lemon artichoke soup is a must try. The US based wine selection is not that interesting- definitely go European.

    Great food and ambiance. This is a breakfast/brunch spot that gives really good portion sizes. I think they are also open for dinner some nights. Not too much food but plenty enough!!! I couldn't finish mine, but ate over half of it. So, I didn't feel wasteful. The pictures speak for themselves. Try the hot chicken- flavorful and not salty like others I have tried. Their Gouda grits are super thick, but oh so flavorful. You may want a few pats of butter if you like them thinner. I loved them but my hubby wasn't sure he loved the texture- food belonged to me so my vote wins 5. Nice area of town and there are lots of food choices. The service was stellar and the server made some great recommendations. Definitely worth it. Not sure if we will return, but that is only because this is a short weekend trip and we have lots of food to try in Nashville.

    Brunchin' in Music City!! We were visiting Nashville and my son and daughter in law suggested Midtown Cafe for brunch. Two great things were that they were able to make a reservation the day of which was great, and it was in walking distance of their apartment. We were seated immediately which was great. One con is that the place is small, but they have added mirrors to make it look bigger which really helped. The food was really good. I enjoyed the Midtown Breakfast that came with bacon, scrambled eggs and a fruit cup. The fruit cup had my favorites strawberries, madarin oranges and grapes rather than the typical cantaloupe and honeydew. My daughter in law got the chocolate chip pancakes which would have been my second choice.

    Great food, great waiter, Shaun, French toast à la cart, w peaches, whipped cream and syrup. No need for the syrup. So good, great times. Great atmosphere.

    There are too many choices for breakfast in Nashville and I was hitting analysis paralysis. In the end I went with my 10% discount from my hotel and went with Midtown Cafe - a very good call. Midtown is an institution (30+ years) in a city of institutions and it rightfully belongs there. I was a table for one so I headed straight to the bar. The very friendly waitress recommended the Green Tomato Benedict with a side of cheese (Gouda) grits which was a great call. The food arrived in a timely manner, piping hot and oh so delicious. And those grits! So delicious and some of the best I've ever had. No need to struggle over food choices - just go to Midtown. One final note - whilst surfing Yelp this morning I came across what is claimed to be the finest coconut cream pie. Since my Midtown meal was manageable I know where I'm headed next.

    Anyone giving MidTown Cafe less then 5 stars doesn't deserve it and shouldn't come back. This place is absolutely a must, for anyone that wants excellent service (I recommend Makailah) and fantastic cuisine. The Cafe, while small, is well-appointed with black table cloths and excellent low-tone music, making it all feel very intimate. We started with their signature Lemon Artichoke Soup, it was delicious, and I'll never ever forget the Shrimp N Grits, Simply Amazing! I'm looking forward to my next trip to Nashville a bit more now!!!

    Came to Nashville w/ my husband and after a quick google search decided to come here for breakfast. So glad we did! This breakfast spot is a must-visit, even if it means braving the crowds. The wait can be long, reservations or not, but trust me, it's worth it. The service is top-notch, the vibes are warm and welcoming, and the food is seriously delicious. I went for the crab cake benedict and really enjoyed it. It's clear why this place is a favorite among locals and visitors alike. Definitely check it out if you're in the area.

    Midtown Breakfast **

    Was very surprised that this restaurant offers valet. This made parking very easy. I stopped by during breakfast and they have an extensive breakfast & brunch menu. Very comfortable and cozy. I loved that they laid down a fresh linen tablecloth with each dining party. The food was simple and yummy. I ordered the Midtown Breakfast. It was affordable and filling. They offer a shuttle service to The Ryman, so I plan on making reservations for dinner before a concert at the Ryman soon.

    This was an unexpected surprise. I happened to go for a walk and saw the spot, but it also came up on my Yelp. This seems like a neighborhood eatery with plenty of history. 35 years to be exact. Place was packed and boomin, and now I see why. I ordered the Coca Cola short rib which amazing. Tender, flavorful, and succulent. Only complaint was the tight seating and loud environment. But if you're looking for good food and a good vibe, then this is the place, especially in Nashville.

    Shrimp & Grits **

    We had Kristy as our server and she was phenomenal! Huevos Tostadas with the Gouda Grits was amazing. Hubby had the Shrimp and Grits to die for. Friend had the Fried Chicken Biscuits just the right spice level! Would recommend going 10/10! If you're lucky you'll even see a star... we did!!

    Man good food and good people! As soon as we walked in, we knew this was a popular spot in the area. We had a party of 18 and they accommodated us accordingly with no issues. A good way to start your morning/afternoon here. I recommend trying their Brussels sprouts dish!

On one visit with only a few of us there our bartender disappeared for a good 20 minutes. Upon his return he was focused on everything but the 5 of us in the place until we finally had to ask to get service. The other visit everyone helped me but the actual server. Maybe this is a staffing problem, I don't know but being stuck for 20 minutes to order another drink with my meal is not acceptable. Although they had that check in my hand in under a minute and in under another minute to process. Again, super nicer people, but kind of oblivious. 2) Now let's talk about the kitchen. And I'm adding some input from the other diners because we all sat there waiting. - flavors are great, but the salt and spice level is overboard. I had the mushroom appetizer and nearly choked/coughed to death. I like heat but this was raw spice that overpowered the dish. And the salt about made my feet swell into balloons. Such a shame because the idea is great just poor execution - deviled eggs. Pass - BBQ Shrimp, sort of like the mushrooms right profile but overpowering - gumbo. Two other people had the gumbo and when I asked they said that too is just over spiced I want to like this place, but probably my last visit unless I just come for oysters. Sorry

Situated in the heart of Germantown, this modest yet distinguished establishment offers not only fare of exceptional quality, but also the singular pleasure of partaking in a communal table, where strangers are received as companions, an echo of a more gracious and convivial age.

Each accompanying dish is prepared with the utmost care and discernment, reflecting a commendable attention to detail.

This place was a wonderful little experience. We were greeted with the sign outside, "Enter as Strangers and Leave as Friends," which is one of my life philosophies. We got there right at opening, so we got seated first along with one of their years-long regulars. A friendly local lady who provided us with pleasant conversation until the next patrons arrived, who were seated right next to us at the same table, family style. Then the next people, then the next. Sitting, talking, passing the food around the table. It was a nice experience. And the ambiance was nice, too. Plain, wooden chairs, white tile flooring, vintage holiday decor, it was like being in a grandma's house. Very comforting. The food came out one or two dishes at a time. Everything was good enough, but it also was apparent that it was mass produced in a catering style. The basics like the bacon and ham were very good, but the fried chicken, I wouldn't take a big piece, save your stomach room for other things. Whatever other things you grab, make sure you grab a biscuit and get ahold of their homemade peach preserves. That stuff was 10/10 excellent. It's so good, they jar it and sell it at the front desk. I totally recommend. Overall, breakfast is one of the most important meal of the day, so if you find yourself in Nashville, I would implore you to come and check out this city staple of over 30 years now.

I was also absolutely blown away by dessert. The pâtissier is such a cheerful, nice, and incredibly talented person. Don't skip dessert. I sat at the bar as I was dining alone. Adam and Kevin were amazing. They knew every single item on the menu pretty much. and when I really think about it.... there were only two items on the menu that really stood out to me so I guess they really did the heavy lifting of the meal with their knowledge of each specific ingredient that I had questions about. I told them that I came directly from Jack Daniel's distillery in Lynchburg and they told me that the pork that they use in the Fried Carolina Gold app and Bear Creek Heritage Pork is raised with the spent grain from Jack Daniel's which I think is pretty cool to up-cycle ingredients. They immediately sold me on those dishes. Everything I got: *Give Up The Ghost (cocktail pls reference pic of menu for ingredients) *Husk Old-Fashioned (cocktail) *Late Embers Sunchoke Liqueur *Ritual Sister Smoked Pineapple Liqueur *Murder Point Oysters on the half shell *Fried Carolina Gold Rice *Bear Creek Heritage Pork *Noble Spring Chereve Mousse Both cocktails that I got were amazingly crafted but I think I go about picking cocktails the wrong way... I tend to see a few ingredients that catch my eye but then when they're not front and center I get a little disappointed? I recall enjoying the give up the ghost but It wasn't jasmine-y or yuzu-ey enough for me. It was probably really well balanced but not entirely memorable. The Husk Old Fashioned was probably a really well crafted old fashioned... maybe the best old fashioned i've ever had, but I think maybe the food just kinda out shined it / stole the spotlight. Both Liqueurs that I tried blew me away... the sunchoke was super interesting and the smoked pineapple was actually really good. Really thankful that I got to try them. The murder point oysters were okay... habanada? Is apparently a habanero bred without the heat. I wished the flavor was a little stronger on that. I guess I probably could have asked for extra sauce but didn't think about it... they probably would have accommodated too. Dang it. I also didn't really feel like the juniper came through. The carolina gold was GOLD. Holy heck, was not expecting the pork belly to be a juicy, silky, smooth, soft as sin piece of pork. It felt like.... Just pure pork fat honestly. But it was heavenly. Like... the most perfectly sous vided piece of fat. Idk if it's just my imagination or if i'm misremembering but the pork itself was cold? While the carolina gold.... Croquette? Not sure what to call it. Was piping hot. The contrast was spectacular. The sweet and spicy from the BBQ sauce and pepper jelly did wonders and idk. It really just hit. I'm not even sure why. Maybe because I wanted to like the dish because of the Jack Daniels connection. Probably because of all the contrasting sensations and textures + the crunch of the deep fried rice. Despite that, I wasn't a big fan of the pork cutlet kinda thing. The base came with some kale pesto and some charred kale... golden beets, topped with a macha salsa and some peanuts. I think that the kale pesto kinda threw off the dish and didn't quite work the way it was envisioned perhaps. The pork itself.... Was leagues below the previous dish. It's hard to imagine it came from the same hog or even same farm? I typically like macha... and don't get me wrong, this sauce was good but perhaps just wasn't feeling it with the pesto. THE DESSERT. I almost passed on this but i'm SO GLAD I DIDN'T. Noble Spring Chereve Mousse with maple, chestnut, and compressed pear. I can't stop talking about this dish. I took the first spoonful with the first pear and I felt like I was shot to heaven. It was the juiciest, most surreal bite of fruit that I've ever felt in my life. There was a crunch that felt like maybe it was slightly frozen but also bursting with juices like... crunchy boba almost or something idk wtf. I was prepared not to enjoy it as I'm not the biggest fan of chevre but it was balanced perfectly with the chestnut. Not too tart. Not too sweet. The maple granola? Ish on top provided a nice extra, different type of crunch. Actually not sweet at all. The granola complemented it perfectly by serving as the sweetener. I thought the dish only came with five pieces of pear. Imagine my joy when I dug deeper into the bowl and there was plenty. Good lord. I got the faintest hint of jasmine? From the pear... or something. I didn't know what it was but I got a chance to speak to pastry afterwards and she told me she used apple cider vinegar, OJ, and.... Orange blossom extract? Genius. I love that the menus are DATED....... I have an entire two more paragraphs but I fear I'm over the 5000 character limit.

Btw, they have a small complimentary parking lot next door plus a paid lot across the street, which is convenient. I had heard so much hype about the food, but for me it didn't totally live up to it. The biscuits were overly salty and not something I wanted to finish. The cold shrimp with blood orange was an interesting combo that I surprisingly liked. I ordered the steak and while it was cooked perfectly, the portion felt small for the price. It also came with broccolini and a really good sauce. Although our bartender/server was super attentive and friendly, it did take a very long time for our entrées to come out. He even had to go check on them and ended up bringing the food back themselves. Unfortunately, mine was honestly a little lukewarm. Overall, it was just mid for me. I wouldn't rush back, but I'd go again if someone else really wanted to try it.

    4.8* (out of 5) Food: 5* Atmosphere: 5* Value: 4*…read more Service: 5* Would I go back / Recommend?: 5* (Definitely) Total check/person: $75 03/20/2026 This place caught my wife's eye during her reviews of places to eat while staying in downtown Nashville and was an easy walk from our hotel, so it was our first dinner destination after arriving. The small signage made it a little difficult to find inside the Marriott (see pictures), but from the moment we walked in, heard the live piano player and saw the dining area - we knew this would be a great experience. We started off by sharing orders of Lobster Bisque (see picture) and Burrata with Toast (see pictures). We really enjoyed both of them - the Lobster Bisque was so creamy and smooth and the Burrata was cool, fresh and clean. They were a great combination to start our dinner experience and I would recommend both of them. Since it was a Friday during lent, my wife opted for the BBQ Shrimp Pasta (see picture) and I went with the Daily Fish Special on Blue Corn Grits (see picture). As we always do when we go out, we shared our plates and really enjoyed both of them. The BBQ Shrimp Pasta was rich, buttery and smooth and the Fish Special was a tasty white, flaky and blackened fish served on a bed of rich, creamy blue corn grits. Here again, both are highly recommended. While it is one of your more expensive area stops for dinner, you will appreciate the food quality and presentation at Gannons Nashville for your next special occasion.

    What a wonderful dining experience! The restaurant is beautiful. Our servers were great. We…read morechallenged them to get us out by 7pm because we had to get to a concert. They made it happen. All six of us were delighted with our meals. The portions were large and cooked perfectly. I can't remember a better restaurant experience. They knocked it out of the park!
